YOU’LL SOON FIND OUT!

You'll soon find out! That I wasn't triggered in ideal deeds Ignoring Grace and enjoying misdeeds Claiming to be the chief enjoyer of sin Where sin revealed its unworthiness You'll soon find out! As you instils your judgement here All with hope and all consciousness Of my late attendance to the works of pen Where thee thus revealed a self-filled joy You'll soon find out! As I'm still as innocence as before Like the savior's call of course I'm never that lazzily you think Where my words reveals my truth You'll soon find out! How ever luckily it is to be loved Though loving and leaving no doubts To the God of throne as children of peace Where your peace thus blesses the days You'll soon find out! Love and embrace all;poor and rich You'll soon find out! What it takes to be humble in life 'Life is an everyday thing'.

PUBLISH YOUR OWN BOOK OF POETRY

Editor’s Note

The number one question our editors receive is—what do the editors and judges look for when judging the contest? The number one answer we give is creativity. Unlike prose, writing composed in everyday language, poetry is considered a creative art and requires a different type of effort and a certain level of depth. Of the thousands of poems entered in each contest, the ones that catch our judges’ eyes are the ones that remove us, even just slightly, from the scope of everyday life by using language that is interesting, specific, vivid, obscure, compelling, figurative, and so on. Oftentimes, poems are pulled aside for a second look based simply on certain words that intrigued the reader. So first and foremost, be sure your poetry is written using creative language. Take general ideas and make them personal. In his infamous book De/Compositions: 101 Good Poems Gone Wrong, W. D. Snodgrass imparts, “We cannot honestly discuss or represent our lives, any more than our poems, without using ideational language.”
